Myles Munroe Rediscovering the Kingdom Vol 3 pt3

Introduction

This tutorial is based on Myles Munroe's teachings about the kingdom of God and its principles. It aims to help you understand the foundation of God's kingdom, its significance in our lives, and how to apply these principles practically.

Step 1: Understand the Concept of a Kingdom

• Every kingdom requires a king. Without a king, there is no kingdom.
• A kingdom must have a territory. Land is essential for any government or kingdom to exist.
• The Bible emphasizes that while God owns the highest heavens, He has given the earth to humanity to govern. This concept is based on Psalm 115:16.

Step 2: Recognize the Importance of Territory

• Selling land equates to selling existence; without land, a nation cannot function as a kingdom.
• Understand the practical implications: If you are in someone else's house, you do not own it—regardless of how well you maintain it.
• Every kingdom citizen must work their own land to prosper, as stated in Proverbs.

Step 3: Apply the Principles of Ownership

• Focus on acquiring real estate before indulging in luxuries.
• Avoid chasing quick riches or fantasies which lead to financial instability.
• Discipline yourself financially; prioritize saving and investing in property over luxury items.

Step 4: Embrace Your Citizenship in the Kingdom

• Recognize the difference between being a Christian (a religious identity) and a citizen (a legal status with rights).
• Understand that the Bible serves as the constitution of the kingdom of God, detailing your rights and responsibilities.

Step 5: Learn the Laws of the Kingdom

• Each kingdom has laws that govern it. Familiarize yourself with the laws of the kingdom of God to live freely and effectively.
• Laws are essential for maintaining order and justice in any kingdom.

Step 6: Understand the Role of Governance

• Every kingdom has a government that oversees its citizens and enforces laws.
• Jesus introduced a government when He came to earth, emphasizing the need for a new order of authority.

Step 7: Know Your Rights and Privileges

• As a citizen of the kingdom, you have rights that must be claimed and exercised.
• Engage with the constitution (the Bible) to understand the benefits and privileges that come with your citizenship.

Conclusion

Understanding the principles of the kingdom of God can transform your life. By recognizing the importance of territory, ownership, and citizenship, you can align your actions with the values of the kingdom. Start prioritizing land ownership, become familiar with the laws of the kingdom, and embrace your rights as a citizen. These steps will empower you to live more fully within the kingdom's framework.
